The heart is the organ that drives the circulatory system. In humans, it consists of four chambers with two that collect blood called atria and two that pump blood called ventricles. The heart's valves prevent blood pumped out of the ventricles from flowing back into the heart.
Vector quantities are fully described by which of the following?
a magnitude and a direction |
|
a direction and a polarity |
|
a direction only |
|
a magnitude only |
Velocity and displacement are vector quantities which means each is fully described by both a magnitude and a direction. In contrast, scalar quantities are quantities that are fully described by a magnitude only. A variable indicating a vector quantity will often be shown with an arrow symbol: \(\vec{v}\)
The crust and lithosphere of the Earth is made up of which of the following?
sedimentary rock |
|
continents |
|
plates |
|
metamorphic rock |
The crust and the rigid lithosphere (upper mantle) is made up approximately thirty separate plates. These plates more very slowly on the slightly more liquid mantle (asthenosphere) beneath them. This movement has resulted in continental drift which is the gradual movement of land masses across Earth's surface. Continental drift is a very slow process, occurring over hundreds of millions of years.

compound |
|
molecule |
|
element |
|
atom |
An element is matter than cannot be separated into different types of matter by ordinary chemical methods.
